Fly the Wing has been an indispensable comprehensive textbook on
operating transport-category airplanes for more than 45 years. Pilots
planning a career in aviation will find this book provides important
insights not covered in other books. Written in an easy, conversational
style, this useful manual progresses from ground school equipment and
procedures to simulators and actual flight. Along the way, the author
covers the physical, psychological, and technical preparation pilots
need in order to acquire an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate
while maintaining the highest standards of performance. Fly the Wing
serves as a reference to prepare for the ATP FAA Knowledge Exam.
Although not intended to replace training manuals, this book is
by itself a course in advanced aviation. With clear explanations and in
depth coverage, it has been described as a “full step beyond the normal
training handbook.” Pilots who want additional knowledge in the fields
of modern flight deck automation, high-speed aerodynamics, high-altitude
flying, speed control, takeoffs, and landings in heavy,
high-performance aircraft will find it in this resource. This fourth
edition of Fly the Wing includes access to additional online resources,
including a flight terms glossary, printable quick reference handbooks,
and numerous supporting graphics.
